Giving

The gift of education is the most valuable gift you can give. No matter what else
happens in life – no one can ever take away what someone has learned. Your gift will
make the difference to students, faculty, and programs at Wenatchee Valley College.

Whether you choose to make a gift to the areas of greatest need or you choose to designate
your gift towards schoalrships or programs, your gift to the WVC Foundation is greatly
appreciated and will have a direct impact on WVC.

A decision that comes with every gift is what form (or mechanism for making the gift)
your gift will take. Below are some of the most popular options. David Davin, our
executive director, is happy to meet with you about any of the following options and
can be reached at (509) 682-6415 or by email at ddavin@wvc.edu.

The Wenatchee Valley College Foundation was incorporated in 1973 and is a 501(c)(3)
not-for-profit corporation organized under Washington law. Tax ID 23-7319272. Please
consult your financial advisor to determine which gift type makes the most sense for
you and will bring you the maximum tax benefits.

Ways to Give

Your company's support provides crucial funding to your local college for Wenatchee
Valley College Foundation's outreach, student scholarships, and support to the areas
of greatest need. Click here for more information.

A simple bequest in which you write a will which passes some of your estate to the
WVC Foundation upon your death to be placed into a designated fund, or a fund that
your gift creates. To view or download a WVC Foundation Will-Bequest Form,click here now.

A Charitable Remainder Trust (CRT) in which you would provide a gift of cash, stock
or real property to the WVC Foundation. The money (or proceeds from the sale of your
gift) would be invested by the Foundation and a certain percentage would be sent to
you each year as an annuity payment. The payments would continue until you (and your
spouse, if desired) pass away at which point the amount remaining in the trust would
be used for the purpose you have specified for your gift.

A revocable living trust in which you establish a trust which will benefit the WVC
Foundation. Into that trust you place a portion of your assets. Upon your death, the
assets in the trust would pass to the Foundation and used for the purpose you have
specified or placed into the fund or funds you have identified.

A life estate agreement in which you donate your home to the WVC Foundation who in
turn grants you the right to live in the home until you die. At that point the home
is sold by the Foundation and the proceeds would be used for the purpose you have
specified or placed into the fund or funds you have identified.

A life insurance policy in which you would buy a policy and donate it to the WVC Foundation.
The WVC Foundation would hold the policy until your death at which point it would
be cashed in and the proceeds would be used for the purpose you have specified or
placed into the fund or funds you have identified. Alternatively you could simply
name the Foundation as the beneficiary of an existing policy. Upon your death, the
same thing would occur.

A donation of real estate or other tangible gift such as silverware, art, etc. Once
in the hands of the Foundation such a gift would be sold and the proceeds would be
used for the purpose you have specified or placed into the fund or funds you have
identified.
